During tonight's game five I realized something. This is the most emotionally attached I've been to a sports team since the 2004 Red Sox won the World Series.

I've always been a Rangers fan, since the Whalers left Hartford at least, but former Mirror Sports Editor Dan Akeson really made me attached to this team. His connection and live and die with the team attitude made me become emotionally attached as well. Tonight's loss hurts, but the Rangers have not yet lost at MSG in the playoffs and that will continue.
